Mellors, generally I don't have the time to read all the forums, all the time. It's simply not possible with hundreds of new postings everyday. I'm sorry I didn't re-read your thread until now, but if you want to get my attention, a PM is usually the only guaranteed way of having me read something.

As for your suggestions, I didn't say they were bad. I simply said that it didn't seem like something that I would be able or willing to implement right now. It's not something the software can support, which means development time and right now all of that time is spoken for well into 2008.

As for moving the forums around, one could make a case for *any* forum to be closer to the top of the list. Do you know how much anger and PMs I got for moving the games forum to the bottom of the list? And yet I have to put some order on these lists, and they have to make some sort of sense, no? The priority of the support community is support for mental health issues, so they will always come first.

I will take another look at the list, though, and see if there's more grouping or reordering I can do to give these forums greater visibility.

At the end of the day, however, most of our members are females, and therefore this forum will always have a much lesser posting ratio than many of the other forums here. I can't make men post more, no matter what I do, nor can I do anything that will make men more aware of the mental health issues in their lives (or the lives of their loved ones).
